excited state: state in which an atom or molecule picks up outside energy, causing an electron to move into a higher-energy orbital.
The stationary states (quantum states) of the hydrogen-like atoms are its atomic orbitals. However, in general, an electron's behavior is not fully described by a single orbital. Electron states are best represented by time-depending mixtures (linear combinations) of multiple orbitals.
